This week on Main Menu we bring you the latest information from the folks at Microsoft Corporation all about the new Windows 10 anniversary update coming next week to a computer near you.
Narrator, the screen reader built-in to Windows 10 is the main focus of our discussion this week and we brought a number of technology experts direct from Microsoft and elsewhere to talk all about it.
The following Microsoft engineers joined us on the show from the Windows 10 Narrator accessibility team: Brett Humphrey, Kelly Ford and Dan Hubbell. In addition, Joe Steinkamp joined us from the Blind Bargains site as a technology expert on Windows 10.
Microsoft has been hard at work on significantly enhancing Narrator with new voices, performance improvements, a new scan mode, new verbosity settings and so much more. We ask Microsoft questions about the upgrade experience for Windows users and we even dive into the positioning of Narrator as a viable commercial screen reader. This is really just the start of what is a jam packed show. In fact, we have a slight change for this week. We had so much content that was timely we will be airing the content of the show on ACB Radio starting at 9:00 PM Eastern. If you get the podcast version of the show there will be an additional 15 minutes of audio demonstrations of Narrator features included.
Here are some important links you should keep in mind for Windows 10:

Did you ever want a plethora of useful tips and tricks for using Microsoft word right there on your phone? We had a delightful conversation with her as she informed us of how she got the idea to develop this app and describes what it offers.
Next, we hear from our very own ACB Radio Main Menu Team member, Shannon Reece. She demonstrates the use of an iOS app which she uses to monitor the progress of her daughter in school. It is quite thorough and, well, all I can say is that I'm glad they didn't have this app around when I was in school. Heheheheheheh.

While David Tanner was away, Chase Crispin filled in as the host of Main Menu for this week's show.
This week, we begin by airing the first half of a two part panel discussion all about note takers as a conclusion to the last few weeks of demos. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each of the devices that we have been demoing, how these devices are used in the daily lives of the panel participants, and why these specialized devices are still needed for some people. We also point out some of the large weaknesses in the current generation of note taking products. This is something that many of you have suggested since our first panel discussion last August, and we are pleased to finally bring you this discussion. After the end of the first half of the discussion, David Woodbridge from <a href="http://www.visionaustralia.org/">Vision Australia</a> shows us how to use the new iMessage beta application from Apple on any Mac running OS 10.7.2 Lion or later. This app will ship with Mac OS Mountain Lion 10.8 when it is released later this year. Finally, we hear another interview from <a href="http://www.serotalk.com/">The SeroTalk Podcast Network</a> at serotalk.com from the 2012 CSUN conference all about the latest from <a href="http://tech.aph.org/">The American Printing House for the Blind</a> including the soon to be released Braille Plus 18 Second Generation note taker and cell phone powered by android and the Book Port Desktop digital talking book player and recorder.mainmenu@acbradio.org (Main Menu)http://mainmenu.acbradio.org/viewshow.php?showid=195http://mainmenu.acbradio.org/viewshow.php?showid=195Fri, 13 Apr 2012 00:00:00 -0400Main MenuMain Menu for Fri, 13 Apr 2012 00:00:00 -0400ACB RadioWhile David Tanner was away, Chase Crispin filled in as the host of Main Menu for this week's show.

On this week's show, we begin a two-part introduction to the iPad presented by Matt Volbrecht. This is from a series of five podcasts on the subject and we will link to the entire series from the Main Menu shows page. Matt does an excellent job of providing an overview of the iPad as well as some hands-on examples of using the product. Anyone interested in touch-screen devices from Apple and the iPad in particular should listen to this presentation. Next week we will continue our exploration of Book Transfer from The American Printing House for the Blind after concluding Matt's presentation, but this week we felt that the iPad deserved the limelight all by itself.

This week we present a Main Menu exclusive! Larry Skutchan of <a href="http://www.aph.org">The American Printing House for the Blind</a> discusses and demonstrates some features of Book Port Plus, a new product from APH due for release some time in March. Larry talks about the philosophy behind the design of the product, giving us a glimpse into the decision-making process. He talks about why some features are present in the unit, why some features are not yet present, and what we can expect to see in subsequent updates to the product. Why did APH choose Vocalizer as the text to speech engine of choice? Why not Eloquence? Is there a possibility that another text-to-speech engine might be used in the future? What does APH plan to do with the wireless capabilities of the unit? Could we actually be able to listen to Internet radio from a Book Port Plus? How does one navigate menus and change settings on the unit? There is no way to provide a tutorial on how to use Book Port Plus in just 53 minutes, but I think Main Menu listeners will find Larry's examples and insights most fascinating.
